WirelessnetworksareevolvingintowirelessIP(InternetProtocol)networksto
overcomethelimitationsoftraditionalcircuit-switchedwirelessnetworks.Wireless
IPnetworksaremoresuitableforsupportingtherapidlygrowingmobiledataand
multimediaapplications.IPtechnologiesbringthegloballysuccessfulInternet

Manybooksareavailableonradioaccesssystems,examiningthephysical,link,
